News Summary
As the NFL trade deadline looms, teams are contemplating potential moves to bolster their rosters, particularly in the running back market. Contending teams may turn their sights to enhancing their running back positions, while the New York Jets weigh the future of Breece Hall. Other veterans, including Tony Pollard and Derrick Henry, may also be on the move. With speculation growing, teams are strategizing to improve their playoff chances or rebuild for the future.
New York – As the deadline for NFL trades approaches on November 4 at 4 p.m. ET, the league is buzzing with speculation about potential moves, although none currently match the magnitude of the recent trade between the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers that sent edge rusher Micah Parsons to Green Bay. While no blockbuster trades are expected ahead of the deadline, several teams are gearing up for minor deals, particularly to enhance their running back positions.
Contending teams may be on the lookout for running backs as many are employing a committee approach, making them more willing to explore trades in what is perceived to be a talent-rich running back market. The New York Jets, currently winless at 0-7, face challenges regarding their roster and are showing hesitation in parting with running back Breece Hall, who averages 4.6 yards per carry and could become a valuable asset as he approaches free agency at season’s end. Despite his potential, trading Hall might provide the Jets with critical draft capital to speed up their rebuild process.
Meanwhile, Tony Pollard of the Tennessee Titans is among veterans who could be seeking new opportunities. Pollard has struggled this season, impacted by a weak offensive line, and may benefit from a fresh start through a trade. Additionally, the Baltimore Ravens have recently extended Derrick Henry but may consider trading him due to concerns over his age and mileage as they work towards returning to contention.
Several other running backs have surfaced as potential trade candidates as more teams look to adjust their rosters:
- Malik Dowdle (Carolina Panthers): With 551 yards and two touchdowns, he is set to become a free agent after this season.
- Ford (Cleveland Browns): Currently averaging 3.5 yards per carry, he is eager for a new team.
- Chubb (Houston Texans): Available depending on the health status of Joe Mixon.
- Devin Singletary (New York Giants): With experience over 1,000 scrimmage yards in previous seasons, he has been struggling for playing time.
- Tyrone Tracy Jr. (New York Giants) and Wright (Miami Dolphins): Both are facing hurdles in their depth charts as potential trade options.
- Alvin Kamara (New Orleans Saints): Although he has expressed a desire to stay in New Orleans, he has been part of trade discussions.
As November 4 approaches, trade negotiations are expected to heat up, driven by the numerous teams with declining season records looking to offload aging veterans for future assets. The atmosphere within the league indicates a mix of buyers and sellers, with teams aiming to bolster playoff chances while also preparing for the future.
Evaluation from league experts suggests that players with high upside or unique contract situations might become key targets in the ongoing trade conversations. The majority of speculation surrounds struggling teams like the Jets, Titans, and Dolphins, all of which are likely to be active in the market seeking to make impactful trades.
